As of 2023, fossil energy consumption in international maritime bunkers in Germany stood at a certain baseline value, which is not provided here for comparison. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual annual decline in consumption values from 15.95 to 15.44 Thousand Gigawatt hours, reflecting a consistent downward trend.
Year-on-year variations indicate a consistent reduction of approximately 0.82% annually over the last two years. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR), calculated over the five-year forecast period, aligns with this downward trend, underscoring a steady decrease.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Advancements in shipping technology targeting higher fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
- Shifts in regulatory frameworks endorsing sustainable energy sources over fossil fuels.
- Potential policy influences from international agreements on maritime emissions reductions.
